Are there wireless gamecube controllers? If so, are there any affordable ones?

Wavebird controllers are the best, but can be pricey if you are trying to buy a new one because Nintendo stopped making them a couple of years ago. (Used ones typically sell for reasonable prices, if you look around a little bit.)

There are other wireless controllers available too. I've got a MadCatz MicroCon controller too, and it works just fine. I prefer the Wavebird because the size is more comfortable to me - but if you have small hands or prefer a smaller controller it would be a good choice. The real benefit in this controller is price though. Only paid $10 for a new one, and it's not nearly as difficult to find as a Wavebird.

Edit: I haven't seen any wireless controllers with rumble support though, so if that matters then you might want to consider a regular controller with cord extensions.

There is a generic brand floating on eBay and Amazon called Shockwave. They are similar in shape and size to the Wavebird. Mixed reviews on them though on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/ShockWave-Wireless-Wii-Gamecube-Control...

I know you said your looking for wireless but Amazon started selling the official Gamecube controllers again. They are white and $29.99 http://www.amazon.com/Official-Nintendo-Classic-Gamecube-Wii-...

Also thrustmaster makes a wireless controller they market as a classic controller for the Wii but it works with a Gamecube as well.

It's was a few months back, but i had noticed that some WalMarts near me had a whole mess of Wavebirds for sale (at their original $30 US or whatever).

Walmart may still carry the Pelican brand Gamecube controllers. I bought a few about a year ago. They are fairly cheap at $20 and work pretty well (no rumble), but after a few months they tend to wear down. They are nowhere near as good as Nintendo brand, so these days I just use the reguar Gamecube controllers, not wireless.
